Lunch & Snack

Lunches should be brought to the school in a clearly marked lunchbox. A nutritious, well-balanced lunch is important not only to a child’s physical growth, but also to a child’s social adjustment as well. Please make sure that enough food is included in your child’s lunch to provide a healthy balance of the food groups. Any uneaten food will be sent home to help parents determine appropriate amounts for their children. The school observes a “low sugar” policy (sugar listed as fifth ingredient or lower) in the interest of the children’s health and behavior.

For a nominal fee, parents may choose to sign their child up for our hot lunch program. Each day our school serves a balanced and nutritious hot lunch for the children, and parents are welcome to come and eat lunch with their child (please call ahead!) Menus for the week are posted online and on the parent information board. A record of meals served during the year will be kept in the office.

The school provides milk and water during lunchtime for all the children.

Great Foundations Montessori

As Montessori educators, we know that children have an innate motivation to learn. We also know that children learn through play, but that it is up to parents and teachers to provide the right environment in these crucial years to allow the child to flourish.

Within the nurturing atmosphere of Great Foundation Montessori’s Early Childhood programs, children naturally work and play with interest and focus, developing a habit of concentration and love of learning that will last them all their lives.
